Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This facilities grades were terrible across the board. In particular, we wanted to draw your attention to its poor short-term care grade where it received an F. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Based on its score in this category, we were not surprised to discover that this facility is well below average in terms of the number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the metrics we assessed. The final item we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents that returned home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 5.1 percent of its residents returning home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

We also wanted to draw your attention to this nursing home's inspection grades where it received an F. This generally means we found some red flags on the inspection reports. For nursing homes with poor inspection grades, you should scrutinize any severe deficiencies found on their inspection reports. This facility was assessed 12 deficiencies by government inspectors. The only favorable thing we can say is that none of these deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they created a risk to resident health or safety. Finally, CMS cited this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. Hopefully, its performance improves in the future, but until then we simply can't recommend this facility.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

This facility ended up receiving rock bottom score in our nursing category. It received an F in this category. Our nursing rating assesses the facility's nurse staffing levels. We weigh both the levels of licensure of the nurses and the quantity of hours spent with patients. This facility averaged just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This facility fared well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these datapoints to be measures of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last area we scored was long-term care, in which this facility received a poor score in this category as well. We gave it an abysmal F for this area, which is definitely a major disappointment. Facilities that do not fare well in long-term care often don't provide as much nursing care and also may be lagging in some of the areas of routine healthcare services we assessed. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. We found that this facility vaccinated just 48.32536 percent of its patients, which is somewhat concerning. To our surprise, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.
